Set on an elevated plot above Rockcliffe Beach, this rare coastal parcel benefits from wide views across the Solway Firth and an open seaward horizon. Planning in principle for one dwellinghouse was granted on 25 September 2023 (Ref: 23/1103/PIP), making this a genuine opportunity to create a bespoke holiday retreat or permanent coastal home.
The site is un-serviced and will require buyer-led connections for utilities and site preparation. The ground slopes from the lane toward the shore with mature boundary trees that provide privacy; groundwork, tree management and landscape mitigation will be needed before building. There is no specific flood risk noted.
A deed of conditions in favour of the National Trust for Scotland sits over the title and imposes material restrictions: domestic single-family use only, controls on additional buildings, tree felling limits, and design/visual impact input from NTS for any new build. Prospective buyers should factor in NTS reporting requirements and consult their solicitor before offer.
Practical drawbacks include no mobile signal, slow broadband, and the plot being un-serviced. Services are likely available nearby given the established residential location, but costs and access for connections, access improvements and site works should be budgeted. This is a rare coastal plot with strong amenity value for buyers willing to manage the build process and the National Trust conditions.
